      net: Performance fix for process_backlog · 11ef7a89
      Tom Herbert authored
      In process_backlog the input_pkt_queue is only checked once for new
      packets and quota is artificially reduced to reflect precisely the
      number of packets on the input_pkt_queue so that the loop exits
      appropriately.
      
      This patches changes the behavior to be more straightforward and
      less convoluted. Packets are processed until either the quota
      is met or there are no more packets to process.
      
      This patch seems to provide a small, but noticeable performance
      improvement. The performance improvement is a result of staying
      in the process_backlog loop longer which can reduce number of IPI's.

      ipv4: icmp: Fix pMTU handling for rare case · 68b7107b
      Edward Allcutt authored
      Some older router implementations still send Fragmentation Needed
      errors with the Next-Hop MTU field set to zero. This is explicitly
      described as an eventuality that hosts must deal with by the
      standard (RFC 1191) since older standards specified that those
      bits must be zero.
      
      Linux had a generic (for all of IPv4) implementation of the algorithm
      described in the RFC for searching a list of MTU plateaus for a good
      value. Commit 46517008 ("ipv4: Kill ip_rt_frag_needed().")
      removed this as part of the changes to remove the routing cache.
      Subsequently any Fragmentation Needed packet with a zero Next-Hop
      MTU has been discarded without being passed to the per-protocol
      handlers or notifying userspace for raw sockets.
      
      When there is a router which does not implement RFC 1191 on an
      MTU limited path then this results in stalled connections since
      large packets are discarded and the local protocols are not
      notified so they never attempt to lower the pMTU.
      
      One example I have seen is an OpenBSD router terminating IPSec
      tunnels. It's worth pointing out that this case is distinct from
      the BSD 4.2 bug which incorrectly calculated the Next-Hop MTU
      since the commit in question dismissed that as a valid concern.
      
      All of the per-protocols handlers implement the simple approach from
      RFC 1191 of immediately falling back to the minimum value. Although
      this is sub-optimal it is vastly preferable to connections hanging
      indefinitely.
      
      Remove the Next-Hop MTU != 0 check and allow such packets
      to follow the normal path.
      
      Fixes: 46517008 ("ipv4: Kill ip_rt_frag_needed().")

      net: stmmac: add platform init/exit for Altera's ARM socfpga · 0acf1676
      Vince Bridgers authored
      This patch adds platform init/exit functions and modifications to support
      suspend/resume for the Altera Cyclone 5 SOC Ethernet controller. The platform
      exit function puts the controller into reset using the socfpga reset
      controller driver. The platform init function sets up the Synopsys mac by
      first making sure the Ethernet controller is held in reset, programming the
      phy mode through external support logic, then deasserts reset through
      the socfpga reset manager driver.

      defxx: Remove an incorrectly inverted preprocessor conditional · f46d53d0
      Maciej W. Rozycki authored
      The RX handler of the driver has two paths switched between, depending on
      the size of the frame received, as determined by SKBUFF_RX_COPYBREAK.
      
      When a small frame is received, a new skb allocated has data space large
      enough to hold the incoming frame only, and data is copied there from the
      original skb whose buffer is returned to the DMA RX ring; in that case
      `rx_in_place' is 0.  When a large frame is received, a new skb allocated
      has data space large enough to hold the largest frame possible, including
      the overhead for alignment, the receive status and padding, over 4.5kiB
      overall, and its buffer is placed on the DMA RX ring while the original
      buffer is passed up to the network stack avoiding the need to copy data;
      in that case `rx_in_place' is 1.
      
      However the latter scenario is only possible when dynamic buffers are
      used, as determined by DYNAMIC_BUFFERS, because otherwise the buffers used
      for the DMA RX ring are fixed at the time the interface is brought up.
      
      That leads to an observation that the preprocessor conditional around the
      `rx_in_place' check is inverted, the check only really matters when
      dynamic buffers are in use.  It has gone unnoticed for many years since
      support for using dynamic buffers on the DMA RX ring was introduced in
      2.1.40 -- because the only problem that results is in the case where
      `rx_in_place' is 1 frame data received is unnecessarily copied to the
      newly-allocated buffer, before the buffer placed on the the DMA receive RX
      and its contents ignored.  Therefore the only symptom is some performance
      loss.
      
      Rather than flipping the condition though I decided to discard the
      conditional altogether -- in the case of static buffers `rx_in_place' is
      always 0 so GCC will optimise the C conditional away instead.
      
      Tested on a few DEFPA and DEFTA boards successfully using both small and
      large frames, both with DYNAMIC_BUFFERS defined and with the macro
      undefined.

      This can easily be reproduced with the following packetdrill-script (the

      This happens since ec342325 (tcp: fix retransmission in repair
      mode). Prior to that, the call to tcp_push was prevented by a check for
      tp->repair.
      
      The patch fixes it, by adding the new goto-label out_nopush. When exiting
      tcp_sendmsg and a push is not required, which is the case for tp->repair,
      we go to this label.
      
      When repairing and calling send() with TCP_RECV_QUEUE, the data is
      actually put in the receive-queue. So, no push is required because no
      data has been added to the send-queue.

      net: fix circular dependency in of_mdio code · d9daa247
      Daniel Mack authored
      Commit 86f6cf41 (net: of_mdio: add of_mdiobus_link_phydev()) introduced a
      circular dependency between libphy and of_mdio.
      
      depmod: ERROR: <modroot>/kernel/drivers/net/phy/libphy.ko in
      dependency cycle!
      depmod: ERROR: <modroot>/kernel/drivers/of/of_mdio.ko in dependency cycle!
      
      The problem is that of_mdio.c references &mdio_bus_type and libphy now
      references of_mdiobus_link_phydev.
      
      Fix this by not exporting of_mdiobus_link_phydev() from of_mdio.ko.
      Make it a static function in mdio_bus.c instead.

      Please pull the following batch of fixes for the 3.16 stream...
      
      For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
      
      "We have a fix from Eliad for a time calculation, a fix from Max for
      head/tailroom when sending authentication packets, a revert that Felix
      requested since the patch in question broke regulatory and a fix from
      myself for an issue with a new command that we advertised in the wrong
      place."
      
      For the bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
      
      "A few fixes for 3.16. This pull request contains a NULL dereference fix,
      and some security/pairing fixes."
      
      For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
      
      "I have here a fix from Eliad for scheduled scan: it fixes a firmware
      assertion. Arik reverts a patch I made that didn't take into account
      that 3160 doesn't have UAPSD and hence, we can't assume that all
      newer firmwares support the feature. Here too, the visible effect
      is a firmware assertion. Along with that, we have a few fixes and
      additions to the device list."
      
      For the ath10k bits, Kalle says:
      
      "Bartosz fixed an issue where we were not able to create 8 vdevs when
      using DFS. Michal removed a false warning which was just confusing
      people."
      
      On top of that...
      
      Arend van Spriel fixes a 'divide by zero' regression in brcmfmac.
      
      Amitkumar Karwar corrects a transmit timeout in mwifiex.

      net: bcmgenet: disable clock before register_netdev · 0f50ce96
      Florian Fainelli authored
      As soon as register_netdev() is called, the network device notifiers are
      running which means that other parts of the kernel, or user-space
      programs can call the network device ndo_open() callback and use the
      interface.
      
      Disable the Ethernet device clock before we register the network device
      such that we do not create the following situation:
      
      CPU0				CPU1
      register_netdev()
      				bcmgenet_open()
      				clk_prepare_enable()
      clk_disable_unprepare()
      
      and leave the hardware block gated off, while we think it should be
      gated on.

      net: systemport: fix TX NAPI work done return value · 16f62d9b
      Florian Fainelli authored
      Although we do not limit the number of packets the TX completion
      function bcm_sysport_tx_reclaim() is allowed to reclaim, we were still
      using its return value as-is. This means that we could hit the WARN() in
      net/core/dev.c where work_done >= budget.
      
      Make sure we do exit the NAPI context when the TX ring is empty, and
      pretend there was no work to do.

      net: systemport: fix UniMAC reset logic · 412bce83
      Florian Fainelli authored
      The UniMAC CMD_SW_RESET bit is not a self-clearing bit, so we need to
      assert it, wait a bit and clear it manually. As a result, umac_reset()
      is updated not to return any value. The previous version of the code
      simply wrote 0 to the CMD register, which would make the busy-waiting
      loop exit immediately, having zero effect.
      
      By writing 0 to the CMD register, we were clearing all bits in the CMD
      register, and not using the hardware reset default values which are
      set on purpose.

      net: systemport: do not clear IFF_MULTICAST flag · 3b140a67
      Florian Fainelli authored
      The SYSTEMPORT Ethernet MAC supports multicast just fine, it just lacks
      any sort of Unicast/Broadcast/Multicasting filtering at the Ethernet MAC
      level since that is handled by the front end Ethernet switch, but that
      is properly handled by bcm_sysport_set_rx_mode().
      
      Some user-space applications might be relying on the presence of this
      flag to prevent using multicast sockets, this also prevents that
      interface from joining the IPv6 all-router mcast group.

      ipv4: irq safe sk_dst_[re]set() and ipv4_sk_update_pmtu() fix · 7f502361
      Eric Dumazet authored
      We have two different ways to handle changes to sk->sk_dst
      
      First way (used by TCP) assumes socket lock is owned by caller, and use
      no extra lock : __sk_dst_set() & __sk_dst_reset()
      
      Another way (used by UDP) uses sk_dst_lock because socket lock is not
      always taken. Note that sk_dst_lock is not softirq safe.
      
      These ways are not inter changeable for a given socket type.
      
      ipv4_sk_update_pmtu(), added in linux-3.8, added a race, as it used
      the socket lock as synchronization, but users might be UDP sockets.
      
      Instead of converting sk_dst_lock to a softirq safe version, use xchg()
      as we did for sk_rx_dst in commit e47eb5df ("udp: ipv4: do not use
      sk_dst_lock from softirq context")
      
      In a follow up patch, we probably can remove sk_dst_lock, as it is
      only used in IPv6.

      When IP route cache had been removed in linux-3.6, we broke assumption
      that dst entries were all freed after rcu grace period. DST_NOCACHE
      dst were supposed to be freed from dst_release(). But it appears
      we want to keep such dst around, either in UDP sockets or tunnels.
      
      In sk_dst_get() we need to make sure dst refcount is not 0
      before incrementing it, or else we might end up freeing a dst
      twice.
      
      DST_NOCACHE set on a dst does not mean this dst can not be attached
      to a socket or a tunnel.
      
      Then, before actual freeing, we need to observe a rcu grace period
      to make sure all other cpus can catch the fact the dst is no longer
      usable.
